Bette quickened her pace as she followed Tina down the hallway. She looked like a puppy clumsily trotting after her guardian, innocent and trying to do all the right things. Bettes heart raced and she wondered what Tina wanted to say to her. It seemed as if anger filled Tina, judging by her snappy remarks and cool attitude, but Bette didnt think she even know Tina enough anymore to read her. Tina didnt talk or turn around until she reached the door to Alices room. She opened the door and waited until Bette walked in before shutting it behind them.
Hands crossed over her chest, Tina began, Bette, what is going on with you?
Bette looked at Tina then glanced around the room. She noticed several of Tinas things lingering on the floor and Bette swore she could even smell a part of Tina in that room.
What do you mean? Bette asked, completely confused.
One day youre antisocial and ready to walk out the door and the next youre best buddies with everyone in the house, having all nighters and giggling. Did I miss something? Whats up with the sudden trip down memory lane?
Tina was frustrated and it showed in her tone of voice and body movements. She paced back and forth and briskly moved her hands for emphasis. Bette watched her and sat down on the bed, wanting to keep her cool. And she wanted Tina to think she had the upper hand in the conversation so she decided to stay at a lower, immobile position.
Youre right, Tina. At first I was distant and reserved. How could I not be? I hadnt seen anybody in years and I barely kept in touch. The last time I saw you… well I met your daughter and the weekend ended in somewhat of a disaster. I know you didnt forget that.
Bette looked at Tina and she immediately knew that she would never forget that moment in time.
***
So… this is it? I dont hear from you in years then suddenly I get an email – not even a phone call – but an email letting me know youll be in town with your daughter! Your daughter! How is it possible that I never knew you had a child? Bette asked, frustration oozing out of every word.

Tina…if that ain’t an opening, I don’t know what is. Go for it! Sure, there might be loss, but think of the gain! Another great installment.
Come on, Tina. Let go of the past…you shouldn’t be harboring fears after all these years. Didn’t you learn anything about yourself while raising a child (alone) in Colorado? Where’s your confidence? Heck, where’s your spine? Go, Bette, leave her alone. She’s too stuck in the past to have any kind of progressive conversation. Great chapter!
Damn – love it! Go Bette! Great job again. Can’t wait for the next, you’re stories are always something worth reading!
as much as i would love to see them back together, i gotta kinda agree with Seven. the affair was how many years ago? time to either let go of the fear, or let go of Bette. one of the two…thanks for this. as always, awesome to read!
Make your mind up one way or the other Tina. Great chapter as usual Fareast.
This was a great chapter, but I’m not sure how much more heartbreak I can take, or that Bette and Tina can take. It’s time!!
You are killing me here. Great chapter!
Boy! You threw this together, from top to bottom, the action was tremendous. I loved the way you interpolate the past with the present! This was an action – packed episode – it read like drama raher than fiction!
Thank you! I love that they are finally starting to confront their past. Will they move forward together in their futures?
Only Fareast knows!!!!
Great chapter, but get these girls back where they belong & that is together
Come on Tina. let down your defenses and take another chance. Dakota’s already accepted Bette, don’t turn her away now!
Wow, Tina sure has become stubborn…….here’s hoping that they will realize before it is really too late:(…..
I can’t tell you how much i love this story, Thanks for another awesome update fareast:)
Have I told you yet that you’re brilliant?
It’s time for these two to confront the past once and for all so they can begin to contemplate their future! I’m an optimist I believe it could happen!
Hi! fareast WOW! Another Beautiful Amazing Story I agree with seven come on Tina the past it’s over they have Another time that you need to move forward Life is to Short be happy Please post soon.
Wonderesque! Is that a word? Hahaha! The conversations move fluidly, everything is in its place (and yet not), and the characterization is incredibly concise. You are a wonderful writer, a wonderful dramatist…I don’t know what else to say! I am definitely loving your Bette and Tina…and Shane’s trip with happiness. Shane deserves to be cut some slack from the dark, brooding person she’s being portrayed as on the show. Truly, you are what fan fiction IS –> giving us what the show could not, and more. Kudos!
Wow, Tina had a daughter. They are so close I love this Bette as she doesn’t jump to conclusions. We any get so many chances in this life they have got to jump on one of these soon. OK I love this story you really got me going can you tell???Thanks
Tina girl…you have to make up your mind wether or not you want Bette in your life or not. Please let her in and ask her to come back to the room. Great update fareast – you are soo good at this. Post soon
Darn it, these two need to set their pride aside. I think Bette is willing to do that. Tina on the other hand needs to grow up.
Come on Tina, you have got to move forward…leave the past behind and look to the future with Bette i hope..
Thank you.
Oh my god, please post soon!!! come on tina get with the program!
I wonder why forgiving those you love the most is so hard for some people.. Dakota loves Bette already.. And fate keeps bringing them back together – stubborn they are..
